Potable and portable, boxed wines make a perfect compliment for long weekends, camping trips, and picnics in the park. Choose a boxed wine that's as unique as your event, everything from color (white, rose, red, orange) to size (1L, 1.5L, and 3L). Cheers!

FreshDirect University?* We sat down with Sr. Director of Corporate Strategy Kristy Nguyen to talk us through the lessons working at FreshDirect has taught her.

Q: What's something you've learned by working at FD?
A: Consumer’s relationship with food. At FreshDirect, our customers care about the product, the experience, and how it relates to their personal values. Add in sustainability and health/wellness and it makes it compelling to feature the best of what FreshDirect offers.

Q: What does working at FD allow you to do in your personal life?
A: Work-life balance has been great! Having the flexibility to travel and pursue hobbies outside of work, including swing dancing.

Q: What's a goal or a dream that you have?
A: I have three. They are to (1) be the #1 grocer in the Tri-State area and beyond, to (2) grow within the Ahold Delhaize organization, and (3) buy a house in Manhattan, raise a family, and travel more. Oh, and join the Peace Corps once I retire!

Q: What's your favorite part about working at FreshDirect?
A: The product, the people, and their passion! I’ve met amazing people at FreshDirect and look forward to working with as many of my coworkers as possible.

*FreshDirect is not a university, however there's much to learn from working here.
